Posted February 12, 20178 yr It seems to always default to one of my groups, yet I'd like to start people at a more restricted access group until they purchase something, at which point I can promote them. Any suggestions? Thanks!
February 12, 20178 yr Community Expert The default group is set in the conf_global.php in your root directory.
February 12, 20178 yr Author thanks @opentype I've done very few code-level changes to my site so far so I don't have a sense how difficult this is to change (or even possible to do with a cloud instance). i would be grateful for a pointer to a good place to start. thanks-andy
February 13, 20178 yr Management When you open up conf_global.php in your root install directory you will see quite a few configuration options. One of them will be titled 'member_group' and will have a number next to it with the default being a '3' which is the Members group on install. To change this, first find the ID number of the group you want to use. Edit the group in the AdminCP: And then look in your browser's address bar where you will see an address ending in something like "&app=core&module=members&controller=groups&do=form&id=##" where the ## at the end is the group number. Replace this in conf_global.php and then all future registrations will be in that group.

What @Charles explained is for self-hosted clients who can access their own files in the server.

Thanks, Joel. @Andrew Takats for that case just submit a ticket and we will take care of it for you
February 14, 20178 yr There is now a plugin for this: Certainly a lot better than editing files or opening support tickets.
